Package: octave-forge Version: 2004.11.16-7 Severity: normal
Hi, The extra packages of octave-forge are not installed . I was in particular looking for tk_octave. I couldn't find a note in /usr/share/doc/octave-forge explaining why the package maintainer decided to drop the extra packages. Kindly include extra packages ( that are "free" ) and put a note in the debian README file for octave-forge, listing the packages being dropped for whatever reason. Hopefully you would agree the only pertinent reasons may be violation of DFSG or some sought of dependency problem. b thomas -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages octave-forge depends on: ii atlas3-base [liblapack.s 3.6.0-19 Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra ii fftw3 3.0.1-11 Library for computing Fast Fourier ii lapack3 [liblapack.so.3] 3.0.20000531a-6 library of linear algebra routines ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcln3 1.1.9-1 Class Library for Numbers (C++) ii libg2c0 1:3.3.5-13 Runtime library for GNU Fortran 77 ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-13 GCC support library ii libginac1.3 1.3.0-2 The GiNaC framework (runtime libra ii libgmp3 4.1.4-6 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libgsl0 1.6-2 GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- li ii libhdf5-serial-1.6.2-0 [ 1.6.2-3 Hierarchical Data Format 5 (HDF5) ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-10 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libncurses5 5.4-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-1 PNG library - runtime ii libqhull5 2003.1-1 Calculate convex hulls and related ii libreadline5 5.0-10 GNU readline and history libraries ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-13 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Window System protocol client li ii octave2.1 2.1.69-1 GNU Octave language for numerical ii refblas3 [libblas.so.3] 1.2-8 Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines 3 ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
